Emma is Deputy Chair of the Communist Party as well as head of its Press Team. Her political career revolves around her duties to the party, with her most popular political efforts known through her renowned announcements as Press Person of her party. In the past she was in service to the American people as a member of the House of Representatives, representing the Northern State. Her time in the House would also lead to her being elected House Majority Leader at one point under Butterlands and Leia, during their tenures as Speaker of the House, but currently she holds no leadership positions.

Her political views are primarily anarcho-communist in nature, but she has taken a liking to Leninism, with Hasta Siempre serving as an influence. Emma owns The Dil-Emma, a podcast/blog organization that is concerned with various different topics that Emma deems entertaining. Occasionally she also addresses politics in her episodes. Emma's other social activities involve running a Dating Site for politicians and other public figures who have any sort of interest in politics. The site also concerns itself with helping members to grow the strength of their relationships.

Early Life

Emma joined the server early on, after being given the invite by Poke on another Leftist Discord Server. After essentially no consideration she joined the Communist Party, then called Radical Labor, alongside Kaiser. She joined the 21st of January, upon hearing that it was the only true leftist party in the sim. She was fairly quiet at first, but not inactive.

Early Career

Emma was among those to sign on when the first round of elections were being prepared for in the sim. She ran in her party's primaries as a candidate for one of the nominations of the House of Representatives in the Northern State. She didn't argue all too much in the debates, as there seemed to be little difference between the candidates, and she ended up winning the nomination.

Following the primaries, she would be running almost entirely uncontested with the rest of her party in the Northern State. Following the election, Emma would end up being elected to the House of Representatives, as Representatives of their state. She would assume office on February

House of Representatives

After being elected to the House of Representatives, Emma had a nice career of consistently voting in support of reforms that were intended to benefit the American people. She didn't debate much, and she didn't accomplish much of notice. At this point, she was mostly just another unknown. Her political activities were very quiet as she looked for something fulfilling, although Hasta and her prepared to draft a bill involving Guantanamo Bay.

April 2018 Midterm Elections

As midterm elections neared, she would again run in her party's primaries as a Representative. She would receive the nomination, and come the elections, she would be reelected to her seat.

The Second Congress

Emma had been backing Butterlands' rise to power in the RLP, considering his views as leftist that opposed the state; views that she shared. Anarchists needed to stick together in a world of Tankies and Armchairs, and Emma wasn't keen to taking leadership positions, only influencing who entered them. As Butterlands would end up being supported by the RLP for Speaker of the House, he would suggest Emma as House Majority Leader, and the two would end up being elected to their intended positions.

The May Day Affair

During the May Day Affair, when Poke attempted to seize power in the United States unconstitutionally, to further the interests of the proletariat, Emma's life was in danger as the Capitol was thrown into chaos. However, while the rest of her party and everyone else in Congress turned on the President immediately, she did not move against him directly. She denounced the merciless killing that one of the President's executive orders called for, but otherwise she didn't see anything that stood against the Communist Party's values. Unfortunately the Libertarians, one of the groups condemned under the President, would end up becoming fascist in nature. At the same time, the National Front would end up coming into existence, as both Communist members of the Senate departed from the party to combat communism. In an instant, it was capable of taking control of the Senate as it aligned itself closely with the Corporatist Party, and was instrumental in deposing President Poke.

Following the President's removal from power and then his flight to Cuba, Emma actively condemned ATLAS for its actions in creating death during the affair, but otherwise wasn't vocal about the event. However, she did not move to denounce Poke, and she stood against her party in its condemnation of Kaiser, an invaluable member of the Executive Branch. After the Secretary of Education's impeachment, she lost faith in some of the Party's leadership at the time, and from her view they became too liberal, especially considering they actively paraded around that they were responsible for the removal of revolutionaries from office. She remained in the RLP, but her confidence would be weakened for some time until the Communist Party chose to act again.

Post-May Day

Following the May Day affair, there would be a rift that existed in the Party between the revolutionaries and the more reformist types. Butterlands and Leia had been leaders in Poke's impeachment in the House, while Sparkle and Robby had assisted in the Senate as part of the National Front. Those in Poke's cabinet, like Yimir, had also turned on him. The rest of the party who sympathized with the former President would form a revolutionary faction; Skull, Kaiser, and Emma herself. The faction would expand to again include Sparkle and Robby in due time, as it vied to regain control of the Communist Party.

On May 12th, Emma was elected to the position of Deputy Chair of the Communist Party, as were other revolutionaries. They would ultimately challenge Butterland's power as he attempted to reform the Party's image, which was an unpopular move among the Communists. As the next Presidential election came near, the two main contenders for the Communist nomination were Butterlands and Leia. Leia appealed to the radical faction by promising quick action against liberalism, but Emma strongly disliked the Speaker and her past actions, as well as her normal conduct. The final result would be Leia securing the party's nomination and Butterlands' departure from the Communists. Emma was saddened to see her formerly favorite comrade leave, although she was conflicted during the primaries as, in her opinion, he had grown too liberal.

Departure from Politics

(WIP) Emma would depart from Politics as she grew disillusioned with attempting change in the United States. She would move to Cuba in exile with many others of the Communist Party.

Return of Emma and the Communist Party

(WIP) Emma would return to the United States to help Yimir with remaking the Communist Party, in hopes it might be a sign of hope for the proletariat.

Political Positions

Initially, Emma was simply a revolutionary socialist in this regard. She needed to read more theory, although she didn't have enough time to. Her views had always been staunchly pro-LGBT, anti-racist, anti-fascist, and anti-capitalist, but overtime she evolved to have special sympathies towards anarcho-communism as well as Leninism, which the rest of her party had mostly espoused.

Religious Views

Emma is a Roman Catholic, which essentially conflicts with her communist and anarchist tendencies. She does not promote her views in the public eye, however. She also prevents her faith from influencing her political decisions and criticizes the Church constantly for its actions. It's a wonder if she has been excommunicated yet or not.

Personal Life

Emma is just a person who doesn't get shook about much. In the past, Emma had adopted Kaiser, and Politophile, even though they made her hate her life. On May 11 she disowned Politophile because he constantly talked back, but she will always regret it, and the day has left a hole in her heart. She does not speak much of her children, or if Kaiser is even her son anymore. She is happily married to Yimir Aliciadóttir, and has assumed her surname, remaining at her side for several months now. The couple hit a rough point when Emma joined the other Communists in exile while Yimir remained in the United States, but they survived this period and are doing as good as ever.
